"No. Your wife's been through enough for one day," one officer answered, "Anyway we've got good descriptions of the men from the cashier of the bank, and the sher- iff is checking their car for finger- prints.

All of these are glaring and artificial-looking, and with the vogue for natural. ness you will find the girls of Hollywood are more than willing to leave off anything that sug- gests picture or stage- make-up.

Are Handicaps To Happiness Childishness and Irrespons- ibility Blamed For Wrecked Marriages Combination of a mature body and a childish and immature mind is "one of the worst handicaps to a successful marriage," according to Dr. R. F. Galbreath, president of Westminster College. Dr. Galbreath listed seven qualf- ties pointing to childishness: -un- . controllable temper, uncompromis. ing stubborness, thoughlessness in speech, being "thin-skinned" and easily hurt; indecision in making judgments, irresponsibility, and fears, . "MUST BE MATURE" "To be mature," he sald, "a peo- ple must replace highly emotional tempers with reasoning; stubborn. ness with a compromising attitude; thoughtlessness in speech with con. sideration for others' feelings; ir- responsibility. with thoroughness and accuracy, especially in one's vocation, and fears with courage to follow one's conviction," __. More persons lose their jobs and married happiness through {rre- sponsibility and inability to get along with others than for any oth- or 'reason, Dr, Galbreath asserted. 0 England must have its tea even if hell is raining from the heavens.
